Sold by United. Crowned in Naples.

Manchester United sold their academy boy to Napoli in 2024 for £26m. One season later, Scott McTominay scored an overhead kick to clinch the Scudetto — Napoli's title by a single point — and was named Serie A's Player of the Season. Now he's the engine of Scotland's first World Cup since 1998. They beat Haiti for a first win in 36 years. One catch: Scotland have never escaped a group. Eight times. Beat Morocco, and that ends.
